Safer trucks on the street

Busy streets, narrow passages and people moving around the truck. These are conditions that put special safety requirements on both truck and driver.

We know what's going on out there. We know what accidents look like. That's why we do so many extra tests that are not called for by legislation.

What makes the Volvo FL safer? (6)

Collision Warning with Emergency Brake

If there’s a risk of colliding with a vehicle or another object, warning lights alert you. If an impact is imminent, the automatic emergency brake quickly comes to your assistance.

Lane Keeping Support

This system tracks road markings with a camera. When it looks like you’re straying over them, it’ll ping you a signal.

ESC

The Electronic Stability Control uses engine power and individual wheel brakes to reduce the risk of skidding and rollover.

I-Sync

I-Sync makes driving safer since there’s no heavy clutch, and no stick to wrestle with. The simplicity of the system reduces driver fatigue and ups focus, helping you to concentrate on the road and the traffic around you.

Safe drivers

A trained driver works efficiently without compromising on safety. Volvo Trucks driver training programmes give drivers the tools to do just that.

Testing

Swedish cab strength test. Barrier test. Roll-over test. Sled test. Head impact test. The Volvo FL has passed them all. And the tests are thorough – with the interior fittings in place and full storage compartments. We know that this is among the safest trucks on the market.

Interior

Safely seated

You sit well protected in the Volvo FL. The seat anchoring and the entire cab structure have been reinforced and has passed all the rigorous tests that our cabs do.

Alcolock

Alcohol doesn’t belong in traffic. The alcolock can be factory fitted and it’s a clear message to drivers and transport customers how seriously you take road safety.

Crew cab

Bring a crew of up to 7 safely seated in the Volvo FL crew cab. Of course the crew cab is tested just as rigorous as all our cabs.

Integrated seatbelt

Around half of all fatalities in trucks could be avoided through use of a seatbelt – a fact worth remembering next time you hit the road. In the Volvo FL, they are integrated in the seats.

Exterior

Underrun protection systems

Integrated in the front, the rear and on the sides – protecting other road users in a collision. The system prevents smaller vehicles from getting wedged under the truck.

Lighting

We’ve integrated the front position lights and daytime running lights. As a result, the unit provides intelligent illumination from a compact package. The truck is always visible to other road users.

All-round visibility

A perfect setup of mirrors, a large windscreen with a low bottom edge and extra windows in the doors lets you see what’s going on around your truck. Essential for safe operations in urban areas.
